I own a 55g and keep two 6" Red's and a 8" Pacu in it. In your opinion is it a good idea to allow as much space for swimming possible? In other words, should I keep the ornaments in my tank to a minimum?

I prefer live plants over fake ones.

The live plants help with gas exchange resulting in more oxygen in the tank. I use live and fake plants. I just prefer live. They are also more natural.

Yea I once saw a piranha in my LFS with half a plastic plant hanging out its ass. But this LFS is very concerned about their fish. They took it to a vet and got the plant out. The piranha survived.Ever since they have used live plants.
